Connector for Gladius belt
#9
Quote:May I please be a cavalry bore and ask why the connector is thought to be harness? Or perhaps you could show me a ink to the previous discussion as me Search has not produced it.

Thanks in advance...

sure. Simply because over 90% of these finds could be positively linked to a cavalry context. See for instance the second items I mentioned in my previous post, where you can see it still connected to one of the back-phalerae of a cavalry harness from Doorwerth. For more information, I would suggest to look up this article by Mike Bishop. Big Grin
